Hello CAZ. I think this may be what they were looking at. This was posted by Margo on our LG Chat Page.
Cor, lucky you. As Robbo says BirdGuides has reported sightings at Hordle, Hants. Not sure where this is. Here's the link.

This is believed to be the same white-tailed eagle that spent 24 hours at Amberley Wild Brooks, West Sussex, a couple of weeks before before Christmas. This page from Birdguides pulls together all the reports.
Hi Caz
Welcome to the RSPB Community from me. I hope you enjoy being a part of our Community. :-)
It sounds like you might have been very lucky and privileged to spot a white tailed sea eagle. Well done you! I'm envious. :-)
Best wishes Chris
